  • This is one of the hardest videos to make for me, I think it is because even when I know the solution of this puzzle, I still struggle with solving it. Its not just about the mechanism of the puzzle, but also the dexterity required to solve it. Hopefully this video sequence will help you understand a little bit better, and also help you to solve the puzzle!
    Enjoy!

    Putting it nicely, this another “mind “screw” from Hanayama! 👍

    4 on scale, that’s why I thought it was easy 😆

      yes, that 4-star was a misdirection :P, I think this should be 6-star! Thanks for leaving a comment! :)

    I have a faulty one that works only if you force it and actually the first piece to come out wasn’t lined up with the seams. I have to partially open the ball pieces like you do when your trying to look in side and that’s when it partially falls out.

    • @downtimefun

      It's rather delicate to take out, not sure if it's faulty but not surprised as the tolerance level is low...

      @@downtimefun I’m sure each one is slightly different but I had to use a tool. Once they were separate I saw a lot of the grooves had a surplus amount of paint coating on key spots. Shaved off the excess and now it works how you say

      Are you able to find the smallest piece in the sphere? At the correct angle it should come out from the larger hole

      @downtimefun  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      yes, this one is very tricky even knowing the solution. First is to figure out which one is the smallest piece, then to arrange the pieces in the correct position for it to fall out...

      ​@@downtimefunhonestly it's not a particularly difficult puzzle as much as it is poorly designed to have any feedback whatsoever. It's so easy to try to solve it the right way and get nowhere

    • @downtimefun
      @downtimefun  ปีที่แล้ว +2

      @Thor22396 I think the difficulty lies with the dexterity requirement aspect of the puzzle, and no feedback is also very challenging. The theme is pretty cool though.

    • @Thor22396
      @Thor22396 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Personally speaking I just hate being unsure of if the puzzle is to old and rusty( got dropped too many times etc). And it just is never satisfying to solve these ones either really. Because you just sit there at the end and say yeah guess I just needed to do it better

    • @downtimefun
      @downtimefun  ปีที่แล้ว

      @Thor22396 I see where you are coming from. I agree it gets very frustrating. Not sure if you have heard of the Titan puzzle by Felix Sure, basically a total blind solve (I have a video on my channel). But there are fans for these type of puzzles with very limited feedback.
